WHO WILL WIN THE FURS?
Who Will Win the Automobile a
Week From Saturday.
The third period in the Frontier’s
Contest, which will close Saturday
Dec. 13th, promises to be more titan
interesting.
The beautiful set of Furs to be giv
en away at the time as well as an
extra 5000 Votes on each $15 00 turned
In is a prize worth many more weeks
work, and that canidates realize the
time is short in which to win the
Automobile and they are doing the
best work of the Contest now in try
ing to win this special prize as well as
t lie extra 5000 votes on every $15.00
Have you stopped to figure that every
$15.00 turned in now will mean 12500
votes wheie in the first of the contest
it only brought 7500 votes D n’t for
get this, as u:iw is the time to pile up
the votes for the Automobile.
Now is the time to turn promises
into all the votes possible. The sub
scriber who has been waiting until he
Ci'iild do the most i/ood should l,do it
now,” and candidates who are still
thinking it over should leap now and
think afterwards.
The Special Prizes and Extra Votes
are won according to the amounts of
money turned in on subscriptions
by the different candidates. The
Automobile will be awarded on the
Votes obtained during the contest,
the coupon votes, the extra special
votes and subscription votes, so gath
er all you possibly can as now is the
t ime to make every dollar count votes
for you.
The interest and enthusiasm keeps
gaining all the time—candidates who
were “just thinking about it” a week
ago have seen the valuable possibil
ities and are now out after the votes
with a telling effect, which proves
that it is never too late and that
there are votes in abundance for those
who go after them.
Friends of the candidates continue
to vote at the office and by mail, fur
ther illustrating the wide spread in
terest. The Contest will close Sat
urday Dec. 20th, at nine P. M. and it is
not a great ways off, but that is just
the advantage and there is plenty of
time ahead for any one to win. The
contest was arranged to be a short
one so as not to tire every one, candi
dates and friends alike, and on the
theory that as much can be accom
plished in a few weeks as in several
months—and the real fact of the mat
ter is “The race is now on.” Who
will win the Furs December 13th.
Who will win the Automobile Dec.
20th. The count of votes as they
stand for the Automobile is as follows.

Our Girls.
There are just two things that will
keep girls straight at the age when
they begin to think of longer dresses,
and beaux: One is plain clothes and
the other home duties. The girls we
see making fools of tnemselves are al
most invariably over dressed. They
wear duds that women of thirty should
hesitate to wear.
A little girl with too many clothes
and to costly one’s soon becomes self
conscious and vain, and you grown ups
know the next step..
A pure hearted girl who has a place
in a home, home work and home
duties has her heart there, too, and
no boy can steal It. Even when ma
turity comes, and a real man comes,
and a real affair of the heart comes,
will such a girl leave home, and then
only after a heart rending. But a girl
who Is at home only at the table and t
late at night won’t love that home, r
Work makes things sacred. The child 1
whose home memories are not hallow- t
ed by work, who Is not needed, and )
dues not feel the need will not love c
that home, and If she does not love <
the home of her girlhood she is not (
very apt to love anything. Home will
mean nothing to such girls. i
The mothers of this town who are
responsible for the girls who gad the s
streets at nights shouldstop and think 1
what It is going to mean both to that 1
daughter and to herself In years to
come. I not only speak of young
ladies but of little girls from nine to
thirteen who are let run at night to
